Best Answer

As I understand it, the landlord is required to maintain it essentially in the condition it was in when you moved in.

So if there were working appliances when you rented it, they are responsible for the maintenance.

If you are asking is the landlord required to provide new stuff when you move in, no.

when the unit reaches the UNSAFE and beyond "reasonable wear and tear" limits. Check with your local housing authority. In California, there is no fixed time period, it's just when the place is not "habitable". The tenant (in San Jose at least) can appeal and get an inspection which is binding on the landlord. You may have laws like that in Tennessee as well.

If a tenant's dishwasher breaks down after six months - is it the landlords responsibility to replace it?

It depends on what your lease says, but generally, the landlord is responsible for keeping all appliances that were supplied with the property in good working order. If you contact your landlord and the landlord refuses to fix the dishwasher, I recommend you contact your city hall to determine the department that issues renal licenses for your area. They might be able to point you in the right direction for your area.

Does landlord have to replace pet stained carpet before you move in?

This depends on your local housing codes. This would seem like a cosmetic issue and would be in the landlords best interest to do so, but he may not be lawfully required. He can rent the apartment in any condition as long as it meets the definition of "habitable" and meets local house and building codes. You have a few options, either don't rent the place or reach an agreement in writing with the landlord about the carpets. You may try an agreement such as "I will have the carpets professionally cleaned and whatever that cost is, you deduct it from next months rent." Finally, should you sign a leasehold for the apartment, you should note in the initial walk-through, the condition of the carpet and takes photos of it. This protects your personal interests should the landlord attempt to blame you for the damage to the carpets (and incidents such as this have happened in many jurisdictions).
